I've never used a recipe for this and neither should you.
The only real important part is that you saute the onions, celery, ginger and garlic as it will release the flavor in a way that you won't achieve if you just boil it all.The curry paste is completely to taste and you'll want to gauge who much coconut milk you want to use. You're going for a smooth texture but if you over do it with the milk it will taste too rich and not flavorful.
Bring to med heat:
1 tbs olive oil
1 tbs butter
Add and saute until soft:
1 large onion
1 tbs grated ginger
3 garlic cloves (careful not to burn this stuff)
1 stalk celery
(a pinch of salt if you like but it's not necessary)
Add carrots, cover with water and bring to boil:
A bunch of chopped carrots (maybe 7 or so/5-6 cups depending on how you chop it)
Once it is boiled and the carrots are soft blend using a hand blender* add: Thai curry paste (this stuff is awesome to make from scratch but not everyone has the ingredients)
200 ml (3/4 can?) of coconut milk
*If you don't have a hand blender you can load it into a counter top blender. If you don't have that you can just mash the whole business with a potato masher.
If you want to get slick (and I think you do) top this with some sour cream and cilantro.

This is great with fresh bread.
